The Arrow Of Time - Update
THE SCRIPT IS COMPLETE!!!! (Finally)
Nearly seven and a half weeks of the most intensive, exhausting research I have ever done, my script is complete. Hoo-rah!
I will post it on here once I have emailed it to some scientific consultants to check the information is correct. Dr. Klappa, friend to the course and popularizer of Science and most importantly, an actual Scientist is on the mailing list. (And Dr. Dan Rolf).
The targets for the next few weeks leading up to hand-in reads like this:
- Get a green light from Scientific Consultants and tutors regarding script
- Complete a Final Draft Animatic (emphasizing clearly the visual style)
- Approach potential voice over artist
- Edit soundtrack
- Develop 'Making Of' and Technical Documents
- Develop into Final Piece
Hopefully all the time and effort I have put into the script will pay off. It's no secret that my presentation on Friday brought with it a sense of apprehension. Now the script is complete future posts will be visually orientated and not so
"text heavy". This has led to a new idea I am developing based on the success of fellow course mates
Jon and
Domantas' speed painting videos. More on this below.

PRL STUDIOS is being refurbished!!!!
Anyone following this blog over summer will have seen the launch of my website
www.prlstudios.com. Initially this site was intended to be the new home for my work, taking over from my blog after graduation. It is now being refurbished, bringing in some exciting changes and new features.
In attempt to widen online presence, the site is getting a new dedicated youtube channel to work in conjunction with established links. This includes the Vimeo channel, Facebook page and Linkedin Page etc. Post graduation, this blog will form a news feed and will help incorporate the new idea mentioned above... Video Production Diaries. The first of which will be released in the next few days, detailing the first seven weeks of production on The Arrow of Time project.
The refurbishment has brought more change, PRL Studios is altering it's name, slightly. This is to acknowledge the fact it has expanded to include a new team member in the form of Peter Latham. I have worked with Pete outside of university before, he also directed the live footage for my
Infected by HIV project. He is currently overseeing work on a "post modernism" inspired mash up, code-named "Project Goose". A teaser trailer for which is here:
Since Pete graduated from Southampton University over ten years ago, he has acquired a range of experience and skills.(Sadly, the same can't be said about his skills on the football pitch). He is currently adjusting to newly married life whilst working as a producer for a leading supplier of sports programming. Genuinely excited to say welcome on board and I'm looking forward to seeing what we can produce.
That's all for now but keep your eyes peeled for more posts in the next few days. For now it is back to work.
